lpv:translated text	"In the European Union, this year has been dedicated to the fight against poverty and social exclusion. However, let us ask what the EU is actually doing to combat poverty. At present, there are 80 million people living below the poverty line in the EU, which represents 17% of the EU population. The most at risk in this group have long been not only older citizens but mainly young people. While overall unemployment in the EU stands, on average, at 10%, the figure is twice as high for young people – 21%, and in some countries, such as Spain, for example, it is as high as 40%. Poverty, therefore, mainly threatens young people. For the future development of the EU, it is therefore important to ensure not only a minimum wage, but surely job opportunities for the young in particular. It is very difficult for someone finishing education to find a job. We may talk about lifelong learning, but that too has a direct aim – to train someone for a profession. I am therefore appealing to the representatives of the EU. Adopt measures to improve conditions for young people, and in that way let us foster a healthy society in the future. Young people are the future of the European Union and of the whole world."@en1
